Why Film? 
My generation loves the idea of film, in complete honesty I do too. Film is special to me, its where  everything regarding photography started for me and I love getting to shoot   film as much as I can. I think in pop culture film has been regarded as this retro idol..Film is retro/vintage however for me I view it as much more of an expressive tool + art    than an out dated one.

I think film has this ability to bring nostalgia into a     photo.I also rarely forget what its like to snap a film     photo because the cost of shooting film are way higher and  much more deliberate making the memory of taking a film     photo a little harder to forget.

On Set With Me

ON SET WITH ME:

Its been a while since i’ve written to you via this blog! We have been up to a lot….I got married, struggled with running a company during a global pandemic and I STARTED A NEW branch of my company! When Covid 19 hit I started to think about ways that I could continue to tell stories without stopping doing full time brand photography, so I started to pick up video expecting to just use it to pass the time HOWEVER I found that I loved it and have dedicated the last year to learning and growing in my video skills. All that to say BOOK A VIDEO WITH ME! I love the idea of doing commercial and branded content for companies that have a value for sharing their stories!! Ill add some photos down below of some of the sets that ive been apart of in the last 2 years! Id love to hear about your needs for video work! If you are a film maker reading this and have questions about the gear I use please let me know what questions you have and id be happy to share!

Plant Daddy

Plant Daddy

Thanks again for taking the time to check out this blog.My hope in writing, is to give you a chance to step into my world outside of just my photography. As of the last couple months I’ve developed a big obsession with plants, specifically Cactus + Tropical plants. When growing up I was surrounded by plants inside my home and outside. I never appreciated having them inside the house until recently. My plant collection is currently up to 42 plants and to be honest I’m trying to not buy any more. The struggle is real!!
